Default Lift Kit w/rear air suspension

I've been looking around and have not been having to much luck with finding lift kits for the h2 with the factory air ride that i have on the rear. I'm looking at going around a 6in lift or more and putting 40's on, but every kit i find for the h2 is only if you have springs in the rear. Any Ideas?

Fabtech makes a kickass 6" kit.

Did you do the install, or did somebody else do it. I'll be doing it myself unless I find out it's to much work with the rear bags. What's the going rate for the kit? Also did it come complete with everything shocks, etc. Thanks

Cody,

I would recomend the the Rancho Kit. Not that I am discounting Fabtech as they build some really good stuff but..... It's very hard to get fabtech stuff right now as they just went threw a bankruptcy and may soon be aquired by superlift. In fact last I heard all manufacturing was halted. Although they may be building again???? Someone may have more info on this??

The Rancho kit is a 4 inch kit. It will give you a lower center of gravity which is one of the reasons that the h2 does so well offroad with its front IFS.

However if I remember right you were just going for the offroad look?

If he wants to raise the rear, I've got the spacers for rear air suspension. If he's looking for just "the look", he could use these spacers for the rear and keys for the front.

What??? Not sure what you mean here?

I lifted my truck 2 inches front and rear. I made spacers for the rear suspension and used green keys in the front. I took some tuning for me to dial in the air ride but now it works great.

Eric,


I love to mod my cars. I bought my gto and never planned on doing anything to it. Now $6,000 later and 525hp I want it to go even faster. Now I'm getting bored with the stock hummer. I plan on putting the lift, and lots of engine work about this time next year. Right now I'm scouting out what kind of lift, tires, rims, supercharger, etc. I went out and bought another car for a daily driver, so I want to make this one badass off road hummer with lots of hp.
